AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPE
St. Louis, Mo.—(ANP) In spite of much testimony, coupled with a confession of guilt and no defense, Robb Johnson, white, admitted to jail on Monday in the case of William Williams, 32-year-old Near-Georgian, charged with criminal assault on Johnson, white. He evoked a reprimand from Circuit Judge Hall, in whose court the case was heard. When informed all eleven members of jury with the exception of Johnson, white, arrived at a verdict, Judge Hall insisted, asking questions, that he declared the evidence presented by the state was enough to convict the defendant. Judge Hall said, "There is nothing that influenced your mind the more evident, the more serious, the more jury service, and you are now taking this opportunity to declare yourself.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JUNE 1, 1929
THAT P. V. LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE
According to reports and rumors emanating from Prairie View State Normal and Industrial College, several members of the white legislative committee, which recently visited the state school for education of colored youth, conducted themselves in a very unbecoming manner.
It is alleged that some of these legislators were undoubtedly under the influence of intoxicating liquor, and that they referred to the school for education of colored youth, conducted themselves in a very unbecoming manner.
It not being content and satisfied with insulting certain male teachers and students, it is stated that some of these incitated, and even sober, members of the legislative committee went so far as to make suggestive remarks to some female students, and advised some of the female teachers, who happened to be from Northern schools, to sever their relations with Prairie View if they did not "like down here."
When some manly and courageous male students began to register their post by posting statements in denunciation of the school, the students who attended the recent commencement at the state school and received this information while on the campus), a hurried meeting was called and the young men asked to desist in such act, because it would "hurt the school" and "kill the biennial appropriation for Prairie View."
If all of these reports and allegations are true, then the race has reached a mighty low level in this state when its leading educators and children from some of the best homes in Texas and Florida have been held in jail and hoodlums masquerading under the guise of state legislators, in order to get a paltry legislative appropriation!
What permanent good will such money do the race, if it must be obtained at such a price and at such sacrifice of manhood and womanhood?
But we presume that some ever-ready Prairie View spokesman will now rush into print denying the allegations and defying the legislative committee and Prairie View board (white) telling them that all which was said and done during the recent visit of the legislative committee to Prairie View met his approval; in fact, that he knew all about it before it happened!
Really, isn't it rather strange and peculiar that the modern system of education, as it relates to public schools and state colleges, particularly where the latter are operated as Prairie View, is doing more to make moral cowards, jumping jacks, lackeys and sycamores out of Negro children than all other agencies and institutions?
The Informer does not condone nor counsel student rebellions and campus uprisings, per se; but whenever the head of a school and members of the faculty are unable or too cowardly and too afraid of their jobs to protect the children, committed to their charge, keeping and training, from insults, epithets and other forms of humiliation, then it is time for the students to act; and any student or teacher, whether head of the school or lowest member in the lowest class, who would not resent uncalled for and unjustified violence, for such qualities and nobler qualities which distinguish real "he-me" from molly-coddles and lackeys.
If it is a fact that certain members of the Texas legislative committee conducted themselves like ruffians and hoodlums at Prairie View during their recent visit to the state college; and if the principal was and is impotent to protect himself, members of his faculty and students from the alleged insults heaped upon them on said occasion, then Negro parents should send their children to some college where they will be respected and protected, and they will be compelled to sacrifice and be womanhood in order to get an appropriation for the maintenance and operation of the school.
Whether the above charges are true or not, the fact remains that as long as Prairie View State Normal and Industrial College continues to operate under its present system, both teachers and students are going to be victimized by insults of all kinds, and they will be compelled to traffic their manhood and womanhood and other finer qualities in order to get biennial appropriations from the legislature of Texas.
Then, to make bad matters worse, it appears that there is a certain element at Prairie View that always apologizes and of course expresses its mutual situation, and of the efforts to promote these and other conditions obtaining on the campus, are negatived by the colority with which certain faculty members relate and deny stubborn facts which are known both to students and other members of the faculty.
The slogan of colored Texas should be: "Clean up or close down Prairie View!" Selah!

The Houston Informer
POLITICAL COMMON SENSE
POLITICAL COMMON SENSE
In the heyday of reconstruction when the Negro wielded undisputed power, according to his numerical strength, there was little or no forceback. He was forced to forebode his downfall. The Negro politician of that day, feeling secure in his donated power and privileges took no head of his impending undoing. He seemed wholly unmild of the deep-seated principle that ignorance weakens dominate over strength. In my own state of South Carolina, where the Negroes wielded controlling power for a season, he failed utterly to see that his reign would inevitably be short-lived. He revelled in the luxurious life of his ancestors, who would last forever. He lighted his cigars with five-dollar bills affecting to hope that five-dollar bills would never fail. They looked to Washington as the seat and source of their power with satisfied assurance that they would guarantee their recently wounded hunchards. Had they recently guided by common sense, they might have staved off the day of doom or at least relieved the severity of the blow. But like the self-delided power in the days of slavery, they would drink and to make merry until the rising flood overwhelmed them.
After being thrust down from the seats of power by overwhelming local white sentiment, they still vaguely and vainly hoped to regain the blissful seats by appeal to the government at Washington. They put their whole reliance in a political party, instead their own resources and resourcefulness. Repeated failure never discovers the ardent optimist. The gambler, who has repeatedly lost, hopes to win at the next throw. We pray all of our lives for specific benefits, but failure in response never loses our faith in prayer. The Negro has planned his hope in the "grand old party" from the first until now. But the Negro has not yet wholly broken his political faith in the all-sufficiency of the party of Lincoln and Sumner.
Somehow or other there has been the consistent hope that some political messiah would arise who would endure all failing hopes. During the fast campaign one of our most conspicuous leaders referred to Mr. Hoover as the second Abraham Lincoln laughed at the easy gullibaldness he opinished Afro-American. Common sense ought to teach that the race can no longer pin its hopes to any party nor to any individual in any party. Presidents Taft, Harding Cooley, and now President Hoover tried their hardest to convince the Negro that whatever political salvation he may hope for lies in his local adulthood, and not the accendancy of any political party or politician. Action is more permissive than words.
There is, however, some gleam of hope that this hysteria is growing weaker. During the last campaign the leading Negro journals and publicists continued the race that the Negro was running from the Republican party. Mr. Hoover will probably complete the work of disillusionment his predecessors began. the elimination of Negroes from place of leadership, which is already an account laid fact, is the last act in the draw of a disillusionment in two political parties in the North more than in the same footing as to the Negro's rights and progratives. When the lily-white program is completed, there will be little margin of preference between the parties in the South.
Common sense would counsel that the leaders of the pace should take
heed of the clearly foreshadowed situation and plan for the future. Our political leaders are prone to stand laxily by and wait until the white man has fixed the game and the rules for the election, but impotent protest. Now is the time for our newspapers and our political leaders and spokesmen to formulate plans for the future. If they wait until the next presidential campaign gets under way, the same rules will apply. If the candidate to the skies for things which we ought to know beforehand are not forthcoming, and begin to condemn him when elected for unfulfilled hopes which we had no right to entertain. I followed the last candidate, Mr. Hoover never once, in open declaration, promised the Negro anything. He is, therefore, under no plighted obligation as other presidents have been. I rather honor him for not helping the Negro deceive himself by not giving him the opportunity ever can open his eyes, politically speaking, the time to do so is now. Does he favor Mr. Hoover's ill-white policy or does he not? Is he more concerned with jobs than with justice? How far is he able to marshal the resources to compel the objects which he has in view?
Some of our would-be leaders are so devoid of common sense that they are carried away with plattitudes affecting to believe the president will or can treat all citizens alike without regard to race or color. This is an absurd impossibility. The Negro labor under heavy racial disabilities and his inability to treat all citizens without treatment. A race which is jim-crowed, segregated and disfranchised, is waiting while whining about equal opportunity without regard to creed or color. These special disabilities must first be removed, then we may dissacreate upon the broader basis of American privilege and prerogative. Let us hope that the Negro's political will for the next forty years will be guided by common sense, and not by hysteria alone, but prevailed for the past forty years.

TAKING OUR BEARING
"As we look about, we discover the colonies of Jamaica and plantations have been edited. A new South has forged ahead. The United States has joined the United States. We cannot help seeing that the migration of North America, large blocks of capital ships, are more nifficient for us, than the Negro migration which we all thrilled to a few."
This question gives rise to several questions of paramount importance, including the loss in the fields of endowment. Are new fields beckoning to us? Is there anything that can do to help us have lost fields of endowment, we have gained some. It is encouraging to see women in the department stores, chain stores and drug stores in Chicago. But on the other hand, these have been greater than our gains.

A short but interesting program had been arranged by the matress of ceremonies, Mrn. Blanche Jackson president of the Jackson Undertaking Company, Inc. The musical was rendered by the chair, under the direction of Madam Rochen, assisted by New Hope Hospital, which was praised by Rev. W. T. Beaulieu, secretary of Periander Lodge. A feast was held at the Grand Secretary C. H. McGregor, who made a few remarks showing the importance of the event and then had each lodge and temple to demonstrate its part in the building, thanks to the pastor, Rev.

On completion of its tenth year, the Houston (Texas) Informer tells the Houston Housing made over, modern schools built, interracial relations established, community service exposed, community commerene aided—those and kidnapped public inter-ethnic Klan exposed, community commerene looks forward to its eleventh year with hope because it looks back on its ten years of satisfaction. F. Kirkham an unusual editor. He says the author's heart of the story few have the opportunity to far remove from it. He tells the facts unaparently, and in our judgment deem them important in the treatment of Negroes in his city. There is still prejudice, still much to be overcome, and are outstanding and indicate ultimate success. With pleasure we call E. Caldwell editor in America." We are tempted to fire both barrels and say he has been as wise as he has been courteous.

SYNOPSIS
The Holden Fur Company, a reputable concern, has been mysteriously robbed 600 times. The coats were placed in a vault at 5:00 o'clock in the afternoon, of March 12th. The next morning when the vaults were opened the coats were removed. The shop doors were locked and equipped with burglar alarms and the vaults were locked. Very dependable fellow. One of the back windows was broken in and investigation revealed that someone had taken five days on the case, have failed to find a single clue. Nobody can explain how the robbery was committed. The combination of the combination of the fire and both of these have iron clad alibis. Donald Darrington, the 'great race handler', by the quick and decisive manner in which he disposed of the Browning murder was called in immediately. He began the investigation of the Holden Company, was absolutely trustworthy. He then requires each of the Fur Company employees to write a report. He was occu-

He then requested Johnson, the Negro porter, to show him over the outside wall. During this time he questioned him.

Questions Johnson
Turning to Johnson he snapped out quickly, "Do you gamble? 'Shoot craps or play the races?'
"Why, yes sir," the astonished and perturbed porter replied.
"Who else gambles in here?"
"I understand Mr. Timothy plays the ponies occasionally and so does Mr. Speed. Me and Speed sometimes plays a little game o'cards during lunch hour."

"Uh-huh. Now, tell me, Johnson, do you help in the shipping department?" "Yes, sir, that's part of my work." "Do you clean up here at night or in the morning?" "Timothy Irregular."

"On the afternoon of the 13th of March, where were the chinchilla coats before they were put in the safe?" "They were in the show room next to Mr. Alvin's office."
"Who brought them to the vault?" "I brought 'em from the show room and put 'em in the vault. Mr. Alvin and Mr. Timothy was standin' by the back window talking, and they saw me. Mr. Speed was standin' there washing his hands."
